  WSR Narrative Review
Story Synopsis:
Margaret Hall (Swinton) goes off

DVD Picture:
The anamorphically enhanced 2.35:1 DVD picture exhibits sharp and detailed images with excellent contrast and shadow delineation. Colors are rich and well balanced, with natural fleshtones and deep blacks. The picture is quite clean, with minimal distractions. Edge enhancement is noticed, but is generally not too bothersome, and there is some minor pixelization. (Suzanne Hodges)

Soundtrack:
